More quotes by Robert Jordan
Better to face the bear than run from it.
Robert Jordan
Fantasy is an area where it is possible to talk about right and wrong, good and evil, with a straight face. In mainstream fiction and even in a good deal of mystery, these things are presented as simply two sides of the same coin. Never really more than a matter of where you happen to be standing.
Robert Jordan
A flapping tongue has killed more men than sudden storms ever did.
Robert Jordan
Should and would build no bridges.
Robert Jordan
You must surrender before you can guide.
Robert Jordan
Thank you, the young mother said again. Thank you. The Black Tower protects, Logain heard himself say. Always. I will send him to you to be tested when he is of age, the woman promised, holding her son. I would have him join you, if he has the talent. The talent. Not the curse. The talent.

There were many good years. Good decades, good centuries. We believed we were living in paradise. Perhaps that was our downfall. We wanted our lives to be perfect, so we ignored imperfections. Problems were magnified through inattention and war might have become inevitable if the Bore hadn't ever made.
Robert Jordan
Always something new, always something I didn't expect, and sometimes it isn't horrible.
Robert Jordan
One pretty woman means fun at the dance. Two pretty women means trouble in the house. Three pretty women means run at the hills.
Robert Jordan
In wars, boy, fools kill other fools for foolish causes
Robert Jordan
Anyone who claimed that old age had brought them patience was either lying or senile.
Robert Jordan
A cat for a hat, or a hat for a cat. But nothing for nothing.
Robert Jordan
I've seen men die because they were sure that what should not happen,would not. -Robert Jordan(The eye of the world,Wheel of time)
Robert Jordan
I grew up around strong women weak men were pickled and salted. The women wouldn't waste time raising a weak boy.
